Townsville City Council – Birds Nest Inspection

August 2015 – Birds Nest Inspection

How do you determine the species of bird that built a nest when a cheeky and aggressive crow has taken over? You get NQ UAV to conduct a birds nest inspection. Before removal of a birds nest from key infrastructure; the Townsville City Council needs to determine the species of bird that built the nest and the ones that currently are occupying the nest. To do this safely, we used our larger aircraft that has a higher resolution camera and most importantly has the ability to continue to operate with a single motor failure.

During the operation we had the crows swoop and attack the crew on the ground as well as the system in the air. This required the crew to relocate while operating the system and maintaining clear communications to avoid an incident.

Do you need a birds nest inspection to be conducted? Contact us today to discuss your requirements.

Thank you for visiting us. As of November 2017 we will no longer be trading as NQ UAV and will continue as FlyFreely. Combined with this change of name is a change of direction with the company. We have made the decision to discontinue our contract drone services.

We believe that the future of drones is in your hands, and that is why we have developed FlyFreely. We want to make drone usage available to everyone through facilitating a safe, quick, and cost effective process. Basically, we want to enable drones for everyone. If this sounds like a good fit for your business, let us know! We would love to hear from you and discuss how you want to use drones in your business.

Alternatively, if you would rather get someone else in for your flights, that is OK too. We will connect you with other drone pilots on FlyFreely who are specialists in their field. You can still reach us on (07) 4402 4069 at any time, and we have made the jump to a new website: www.flyfreely.io

Thanks for all your help and support over the years. We have thoroughly enjoyed working with you and sincerely hope to continue to do so in to the future!
